A Week
Ive been thinking about those two girls who killed their friend on purpose. Why would someone do something like that? If they arent well, why wasnt it treated? If she was mentally ill how come noone picked it up? Getting medication from the doctors is easy? i have crew from 14 who are prescribed anti depressents and are only getting worse? I have at least 4 in my crew of ninety that i know of.
Why arent we sending pple to the pple who can help? Who are the pple who can help?
I find it really upsets me hearing stories like this. I get really angry. WHY ARENT WE GIVING THE TEENS WHAT THEY NEED??? WTF is the school system doing? they spend the most time with these children. WHY ARENT PARENTS EDUCATED AS TO HOW TO BRING CHILDREN UP? why arent their classes for parents on drugs.
WHY DONT PPLE KNOW THAT SPEED>>> ROCK IS EASIER TO GET THAN alcohol for an underage child. That speed is at epidemic levels in perth. That is costs next to nothing and you can get it at the train station....
I just dont get it. Maybe if we knew what speed did to us then we wouldnt take it. But maybe it takes more than knowing. Maybe it takes the money for pple to get the help they need
Im not against drugs in some ways... like to be honest i think they are an important need of escape. But of three stores Ive worked at at least two of the five managers I KNOW OF are on some sort of drug ALL The time. Like before work or after..... They need it. Crew at fifteen can get hold of cocaine. I CAnt even get hold of that but my fifteen yr old crew have addictions.
Come on guys. What sort of world are we making. One where our local hero.. our football star that weve all worshiped since we were 15 ourselves is taken to rehabilitation in another country. Where Brittany who was an icon for teenage girls needs rehab.
And the adults claim not to know about drugs. BULL SHIT> ITs in the papers. Its on the news. YOUR TEENAGERS ARE DOING IT IN THEIR BEDROOM> THEY HAVE ADDICTIONS> what is worse is they dont know how to stop. They dont know what the world means without it. They cant stay awake.. They cant sleep. SO they keep self medicating....
It breaks my heart.

In regards to the two girls who killed their friend, although drugs were mentioned I am unsure if they are in fact the catalyst for the murder.
From some of the reports I have heard the two girls (whom Julia happens to know) basically crossed that line we all call 'sanity'.
They planned the murder out and have no regrets about it afterwards, seemingly relishing the experience.
Now in modern society and for a long time murder has generally been frowned upon as it is very anti-social, somebody's loved one ends up dead.
However, I would put forward the argument that aggression/killing other human beings is a primal instinct, and that the trivialisation of it through all the conflicts going on around the world is what is leading people to do it more.
If the leaders of the country didn't want their populace to kill people then they should lead by example and not be involved in any wars.
That also being said, in other countries the murder rates are much higher and rock is not as easily available, sure there are other mitigating factors such as poverty or a poor standard of living, but I guess the bottom line is that Australia is not an utopia because such a place does not exist.
I do agree on your main rant about drugs however, people (parents/teachers) need to be taught how to deal with their children who are addicted to drugs. Although drug education does exist in school it's limited to "this is why the drugs are bad, this is what they do, don't get on them" rather then saying "Im sure a lot of you are on these drugs, we can help, this is how you break an addiction".
I fear that the only reprieve we may have in the future is from drugs themselves. Pharmaceutical companies have released (although not in Australia as yet) drugs that BREAK people's addictions, anything from alcoholism to obesity, so it will just be a matter of time before we substitute a powder for a pill.

zomg! you get it... almost ...
whilst its all well and good to blame schools and government and ... everyone else ... the one group of people that you named are the ones that should be responsible ... is of course the parents!
now why is does it come down to them ... look at every single person thats "fucked up" .. and you will find some sort of fucked up parenting ... whether it be too much attention, or too little ..
but does society do nething about it? yes of course it does .. the government pays ppl to have kids .. which is all well and good when some 16 year old has a kid .. but then wants to go out clubbing 2 years later and they cant ... so she begin to resent the child .. (cos its the childs fault it was born of course) ...
now if that same 16 year old had better parenting, had been given a bit more care and was not paid by the government to have kids .. she *probably* wouldnt have ...
another example, i was at a wedding last week, and there was a child there .. about 7-8 years old .. and this child was running around , hitting other kids, jumping all over the place .. generally being a little shit .... where were his parents? inside, his mother was dancing and his father was reading a menu, they went out every now and then when the kid got *too* noisy ... and that was it .. apparently this kid is like that all the time aswell ... he was told off by someone else father, when the kid hit his daughter .. and guess what .. thats when the parents piped up .. about "diciplining there kid" ..
fuck .. if that hadda been me .. i woulda knocked the fkn father out .. and if that kid hadda been me as a kid .. i woulda been knocked the fuck out ...
neway ... im finished my rant .. well not really .. i could write an entire novel on the subject ... but neway ... luv u ang :)
